<br>
This is something I feel would be very helpful as the default
behaviour.<br>
<br>
While improving Sweet Home 3D's render engine results (user
db4tech), lights is one of the areas I looked at, allowing size
(</font><font face="Calibri"><font face="Calibri">for soft
shadows) </font>and intensity changes, previously lights had
a small fixed size and intensity. One of my goals, to make it
easier for artists, was to try and make sure lights intensity
remained constant while size was adjusted. Certainly made light
manipulation a lot easier and received very positive feedback.<br>

<div>months ago a feature regarding the Emission node has been
removed, the problem is that it was never exposed to the UI
but actually pretty useful, so i'm writing to ask to bring it
back if possible and if other members agree.</div>

<div>With this option enabled <span
style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica
Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:18.8500003814697px">the
total amount of emitted light is the same regardless of the
mesh size</span>. (it would still be optional of course).</div>
<div>Biggest advantage it would be that once you're satisfied
with how much light you have in your scene you can resize the
light without affecting its power, for example to make it
bigger to soften shadows or get bigger reflections, without
the need to adjust the strenght since it would stay equal.</div>

</div>
<div>If reimplemented, maybe a flag "Normalize" exposed in the
emission node would do the job?</div>
<div>Tooltip: "If checked, <span
